why does everyone hate this movie ?
i think this is a very good action movie.
it's a good " who did it? " movie
i like it. good action and suspense. why does bruce willis and everyone say its crap ? there has been worse movies made.
I love this movie, Ever since it came out on DVD, when DVD's came out, I bought it and have had it since...
sharemeh, its just the loosers that expect another Die Hard and because this film doesn't have as much bang as DH. AND Steven DeSouza didn't write SD.
They're Coming To Get You, Barbra.....

I thought it was a real good movie too, besides the DIE HARD action movies, this is 1 of his better action thrillers, up there with the classic - THE LAST BOYSCOUT.
shareI really enjoyed this movie, not the greatest but it was entertaining.
sharestop fooling yourselves this movie is terrible

I like this movie. Psycho "Who's the Best Cop" Jimmy is a trip.
The dumb stuff to me wa first of all, Dennis Farina, doesn't look old enough to be Danny and Jimmy's father. He really is not old enough to be Danny's father, and he'd have been a teenage dad with the other one.
Also, doesn't undercover Jo jump under the covers with Willis a little too for a serious IA Emily detective?
oops - I got that mixed up - Farina was about 10 when Robert Pastorelli, who played Jimmy, was born.
sharePastorelli's acting is horrible and he's got the 2nd worst ever rug on his head (only Trump's dead animal pelt is worse)
shareThis isn't very helpful. Why do you think it's terrible? That was what the original poster wanted to know, and I do too: Why does everyone think this is a bad movie. I find it very entertaining, and just got done watching it for the third or fourth time. It's in my collection along side other Bruce Willis action movies like the Die Hard series. No, it doesn't compare to those films, but I think it's worthy of a place on my shelf with them.
So, still no one has answered the question. Why does everyone (including Bruce Willis) hate this movie?
Oh, why? How about the ridiculous dialogue, the countless continuity errors, the total lack of plot coherence or logic?
Willis basically reached a low in his career during the early 90s, and this is the best proof of that statement.
Or that people who jump off bridges are apparently never searched for. To me that poorly done plot point sets up the entire premise of the film's resolution, but it doesn't stand up to any scrutiny.
Then, the final scenes focussed on a lot of gunfire after years and years of the killer being very careful seemed just like a sloppy and formulaic Hollywood way to bring a plot to an end.
The film was ticking along at a 6 or 7 until the finale, and then as it shifted into utter predictability I had to chop off 2 points from my rating.
1.) With the current, he could have been long gone before divers were organized.
2.) He was cornered, shots were fired at him, and all Hell broke loose. Formulas exist for a reason.
3.) Predictability depends on who's making the predictions. Nick talking Jimmy into giving himself up would be an anti-climax, and not what most of the audience would want.
It kept me entertained. 7/10
I agree, not the greatest but still good.
